What should shorter users look for in a drafting chair?

Shorter users (under 5'4") face two main challenges with drafting chairs: seats that can't lower far enough, and seat pans too deep for shorter thighs. Look for a seat height that goes down to at least 22"–23" at the minimum, a seat pan that's 15"–16" deep (to avoid pressure on the back of the knees), and a foot ring that adjusts low enough to support the feet. A lumbar pad that adjusts low enough to align with a shorter user's lumbar curve also matters. Some chairs that work great for average height users will have minimum seat heights that are still too high for shorter users, so check the spec sheet carefully.
